Описание: The author wrote Masked Munchkins " during the Covid-19 pandemic to help little ones, two to six years old make sense of their changing world. She was especially inspired by a story on the news of a two year old not wanting to wear a mask on a plane. The childs upsetment ultimately led to the family having to exit and miss their trip. The book easily explains in simple words and childlike illustrations why their world is so different due to a virus. Children do much better if they can be very prepared for changes in their surroundings and what is expected of them. It was the authors goal to achieve this level of understanding in the minds of an inquisitive child.

Описание:
The contributors to Beyond Civil Society argue that the conventional distinction between civic and uncivic protest, and between activism in institutions and in the streets, does not accurately describe the complex interactions of forms and locations of activism characteristic of twenty-first-century Latin America. They show that most contemporary political activism in the region relies upon both confrontational collective action and civic participation at different moments. Operating within fluid, dynamic, and heterogeneous fields of contestation, activists have not been contained by governments or conventional political categories, but rather have overflowed their boundaries, opening new democratic spaces or extending existing ones in the process. These essays offer fresh insight into how the politics of activism, participation, and protest are manifest in Latin America today while providing a new conceptual language and an interpretive framework for examining issues that are critical for the future of the region and beyond.
